8 years ago it's just that they won't see the end of the segment in the [YouTube] player, which is unfortunate.
This is fine, I agree.

looks like you can only set the end time of a youtube embedded video once, and before it's launched. as i don't want to constantly re-create the embedded player as people are switching around the segments, that's not a good option.
therefore i'd say we can do the work of recognizing if someone is outside the segment ourselves and notify if that happens. it's just that they won't see the end of the segment in the player, which is unfortunate.
